How to manage your Netflix settings

Watching TV shows or movies on Netflix uses approximately 1 GB of data per hour for each stream of Standard Definition video, and up to 3 GB per hour for each stream of High Definition video. Downloading and streaming consume a similar amount of data. If you are concerned with data caps or bandwidth limits, you can adjust your data usage settings by following the steps below.

High (Best video quality, up to 3 GB per hour for HD and 7 GB per hour for Ultra HD)

Auto (Adjusts automatically to deliver the highest possible quality, based on your current internet connection speed)

Select Save.Note: It may take up to 8 hours for these changes to take effect.

Data usage settings only apply to the Netflix profile you set them from, meaning you can have different playback settings for each profile. If you are concerned about the total amount of data that Netflix uses, make sure to change this setting for each profile.
